Summary

PixVerse said it completed a Series C extension, bringing total Series C fundraising to $439 million and supporting an expansion beyond AI video generation into games and interactive entertainment. The Singapore-based company said the extension drew new investors including Alibaba, Lollapalooza Capital, Ivy Capital, Grand Mount Capital, Eastern Bell Capital, Mirae Asset, BlueFocus and CloudAlpha, alongside returning backers iGlobe Partners and OCBC's LionX Ventures. Founded in 2023, PixVerse said it now serves more than 150 million users across over 177 countries. The company has been broadening its platform around R1, which it described as the world's first real-time world model and said it launched in January 2026. PixVerse said it later updated R1 with shared worlds and personalized avatars, allowing multiple users to shape the same AI-generated environment in real time. The company is now extending that system into the PixVerse Game Engine, which lets users interact in natural language while the world responds visually and mechanically in real time. It is also introducing real-time interactive livestreaming, where AI-generated characters respond live to viewer input. PixVerse said its flagship V6 model remains focused on cinematic-quality video generation from prompts, photos or clips. The latest announcement adds product and investor detail to PixVerse's fundraising story as the company pushes from creator tools toward interactive, continuously generated digital experiences.
